Best Educations Poems

I went to rivers. Rivers asked me, "Do you know we're alive? "
I went to oceans. Oceans asked me, "Do you know we're alive? "
I went to pebbles. Pebbles asked me, "Do you know we're alive? "
I went to rocks. Rocks asked me, "Do you...

Society! A sad state of affairs.
Corporate, owned. The stores pushing their wares.
Politics, ambiguous. No truth found.
Majority vote. Yet, the loser, crowned.
Divided we stand. The land is not free.
Upward you rise if you have the money.
Our brightest kids, dreams never realized.
Educations cost just too super sized.
Classism,...

I leave school when I was seven
 So I don’t have much education
 Always use my commonsense
 To help me in life’s situations
 
 But it never bothered me before
 My bad grammar and spelling
 Because even when I make mistakes
 You still understand my...

The way you walk unsteadily,
But those wrinkled hands made dishes heavenly
Your words are straightforward, sometimes spicy
But it contains nectar with perfect quality

Tenacity of yours become an allurement 
Upon the reflection of the ideal mother on earth

I grabbed your hand in the middle of our walk
I...

A mere lad of fifteen years
Amid a life of bullying and tears,
I set out one day to end my fears,
I went to join the Engineers.

The recruitment centre I soon found,
The place that made me Army bound,
My medical check soon came around,
Of mind and body I...

College educations certainly aren't readily available to all.
Some are totally awed by exorbitant tuition expense.
Boys and girls of good intenions must apply
for available scholarships as soon as possible,
expecting to adhere to academic rules
and demanding of themseves only best efforts.
Starting as freshmen in highschool, ambitious students
aim...

Trinidad 

My island in the sun
Where my birthright belongs
My ancestors sail from far
... And there I was born

They came from India
Across the oceans
Work in the cane fields
And the plantation

Bring their curry spices 
And Indian recipes to cook 
Play their drum and dhantal
Sing and dance after...

What is the Universe but
A galaxy of People
Of rock
A spinning mess
A vortex, Of life, and death
But never expectant of what will occur next 
Cuz people

They continue
To fight To let go, To dream
and yet everything still seems
to be one big mystery

Man Walks In Darkness

    Sad excuse, not a plus
    just ask Simon Cowell
    Freedom found on a bus,
    words of Colin Powell
    Darkness and deceit, joined happily racing hand in...

When we met you were "The Talented Miss Glory"
And I laughed at your little joke.
But over the years I've come to see
The truth that your "title" spoke.

You're a teacher of kids, about...everything
Your students are so blessed.
Some kids have above average educations,
Our kids have the best.

You...

She's the enemy to whom I've yet to be
Formally introduced --
Her sites set on my 
Tennis bracelet or clutch...

She glowers.

There's something off about her hair
It's color strange and unreasonable.
She dons a skirt too short
And tight for one her age --
My age.
Her colors loud and far...

The frontal lobe of Earth's spoken history
bifurcates like Earth's revolving molten axis
co-arising dervish dance
to YangSun's radiant light.

So too my SoulCare
between Left and Right frontal hemispheres
reforms a spinning AlphaPoint of heated human language
for cultural feedback spiral-cycles
of mediated reiteration.

Ego and Eco Cycles distinguishable
by their resistance to bad...

GUN VIOLENCE BLUES - corrected

They built a gun-violence memorial 
in a god-forsaken corner of my 
struggling city
A collaborative effort of a few academics, 
a handful of neighbors, a preacher or two, 
and some interested parties with a mission 
and a grant, a willing grad student,...
